Units Produced Labor Cost Total cost
0 0 100
1 50 150
2 100 200
3 200 300
4 350 450
What is the marginal cost of producing the third unit?​
a. ​$400
b. ​$300
c. ​$200
d. $100

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Harvey's Hardware

Marginal cost of producing the third lawnmowers:

d. $100

Explanation:

Harvey's marginal cost for producing the third unit of lawnmowers is the additional cost that resulted when the total cost increased from $200 to  $300.  However, it can be deciphered from the case that the marginal cost for Harvey, which it is supposed to be  a variable cost, is traceable to the direct labor costs.  This implies that the fixed cost element for Harvey in the production of the lawnmowers has been relatively fixed at $100.  It does not vary with the volume of production, while the direct labor costs vary with the volume of lawnmowers produced by Harvey.

A 12-year, 5% coupon bond pays interest annually. The bond has a face value of $1,000.__________ Fill in the blank, read surrounding text. % is the percentage change in the price of this bond if the yield to maturity rises to 6% from the current yield to maturity of 4.5%

Answers

Answer:

12.38% decrease

Explanation:

Given the following parameters

6%

Number of years = 12

Market yield I= 6 === 4.5

Present Value = 916.16 == 1045.59

PMT (annuity payment) = 50 (5%x1000)

Future value = 1000

Therefore, to solve for the percentage change, we have in the price of this bond in this situation, we have (916.16-1045.59) / 1045.59 = -0.1238

Hence, 12.38% decrease is the percentage change in the price of this bond if the market yield rises to 6% from the current yield of 4.5%,

The percentage change in the price of this bond will be -12.38%.

The price of the bond at 4.5% is calculated thus:

Yield to maturity = 4.50%Years left to maturity = 12Annual coupon rate = 5%Face value = $1000.Annual coupon payment = $50Price of the bond at 4.5% = $1045.59

The price of the bond at 6.0% is calculated thus:

Yield to maturity = 6.00%Years left to maturity = 12Annual coupon rate = 5%Face value = $1000.Annual coupon payment = $50Price of the bond at 6.0% = $916.16

The percentage change in price will be:

= (916.16 - 1045.59) / 1045.59

= -12.38%

Organization sustaining activities are those undertakings that have to be made if a company can keep operating. Examples include; property taxes, insurance, information filing with Government agencies and etc.

These activities are therefore not directly linked to the production process as they are not related to a single product and so should not be included in product costs for internal management reports which will be used for decision-making.

Jenny Corp. needs to raise $53 million to fund a new project. The company will sell shares at a price of $29.00 in a general cash offer and the company's underwriters will charge a spread of 7.5 percent. The direct flotation costs associated with the issue are $925,000. How many shares need to be sold?

Answers

Answer:

2,010,252 Shares

Explanation:

The funds that are to be raised = $53,000,000

Spread = 7.5%

Share price = $29.00

Flotation cost with issue = 925,000

We have that:

(53000000+925000)/92.5 * 100

(539,250,000/92.5)x100

= $58297.973 x 100

= $58297297.3

The offer per share is placed at $29.00

So to get the number of shares sold:

$58297297.3 / $29.00

= 2,010,252 shares are to be sold.

A. Minimum lease payment.

B. Minimum lease payment plus the amortization of the related asset.

C. Minimum lease payment less the amortization of the related asset.

D. Minimum lease payment less the portion of the minimum lease payment allocable to interest.

Answer:  

The correct choice is D.

Explanation:

The present value of the minimum lease payments is the lease payable. The total amount of lease payable is diminished by the percentage of the lease payment chargeable to the lease owed.

This amount is the lease payment minus the interest on the payment. Therefore, the liability is reduced by the minimum lease paid in each period minus the portion of the payment allocable to interest.

If the poverty trap were made even more difficult to overcome because a working mother will have extra expenses like transportation and child care that a non-working mother will not face, then:_______.
a. she will have a powerful incentive to work more than job.
b. the family better off than if she did not work at all.
c. her economic grains from working will be even smaller.

Answers

The question is incomplete:

If the poverty trap were made even more difficult to overcome because a working mother will have extra expenses like transportation and child care that a non-working mother will not face, then:_______.

a. she will have a powerful incentive to work more than one job.

b. the family better off than if she did not work at all.

c. her economic grains from working will be even smaller.

d. The future is even more attractive.

Answer:

c. her economic grains from working will be even smaller.

Explanation:

The poverty trap is a situation in which having more income results on losing benefits. In this case, the poverty trap is more difficult to overcome because a working mother will have a salary but this results on her having additional expenses that she would not have if she was not working and this decreases the benefits she gets by having a job. Because of that, the answer is that her economic grains from working will be even smaller.

The other options are not right because she won't have an incentive to work more than one job because that would increase expenses like child care, the family won't be better as a result of the additional expenses and because of that, the future won't be more attractive.

Answer:

c. her economic grains from working will be even smaller.

Explanation:

In economics, the poverty trap refers to certain circumstances that make it very difficult for a poor person to become middle or upper class, or increase their income even if they continue to fall under the poverty line.

Imagine a situation where you work for a very low salary, and besides that, you must spend a large portion of your salary paying for transportation and childcare costs. The gains resulting from your work will decrease compared to a situation where you worked in a business that was located at a walking distance and childcare services were provided for free. The economic equation is simple, the higher the costs, the less the profit.

the goods costed €200,000 x 0.4875 = $97,500 on December 10, 20x3

the goods costed €200,000 x 0.4675 = $93,500 on December 31, 20x3

Since the goods were sold FOB shipping point, we have to use the shipping date (December 10) to calculate the original price. By December 31, the price in US dollars had decreased by $4,000 resulting in a foreign exchange gain.

Answers

Answer:

Cost of Equity =11.56%

Explanation:

The cost of equity can be determined using any of the following methods:

The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM)Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM)

The Dividend Valuation Model(DVM) is a technique used to value the worth of an asset.

According to this model, the value of an asset is the sum of the present values of the future cash flows would that arise from the asset discounted at the required rate of return.  

Price = D/Kp

D- Dividend payable

Kp- cost of preferred stock

The capital asset pricing model (CAPM): relates the price of a share to the market risk or systematic risk. The systematic risk is that which affects all the all the economic agents, e.g inflation, interest rate e.t.c  

This CAPM is considered superior to DVM because it incorporates risk. Hence, we will use the CAPM  

Using the CAPM , the expected return on a asset is given as follows:  

E(r)= Rf +β(Rm-Rf)  

E(r) =? , Rf- 2.90%, Rm-Rf- 7.10% β- 1.22

E(r) = 2.90% + 1.22×(7.10)% = 11.562  %

Cost of Equity =11.56%

Standard deviation of demand during lead time = 90 Desired service level = 95 percent What is the EOQ if HighLife pays $45/unit? Due to possible differences in rounding, choose the closest answer.\

Answers

Answer:

365.15 units

Explanation:

The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:

[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}[/tex]

where,

Annual demand is

= 30 units × 300 days

= 90,000 units

ordering cost is $50

Carrying cost is

= $45 × 15%

= $6.75

Now placing these values to the above formula

So, the economic order quantity is

[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{90,000}\times \text{\$50}}{\text{\$6.75}}}[/tex]

= 365.15 units

We simply applied the above formula so that the EOQ could come

Debt financing has one important advantage that the early Modigliani and Miller (MM) propositions ignored: the interest on business debt is tax deductible. This benefit means that the amount of taxes that a business is required to
pay will be reduced by a phenomenon called an interest tax shield, which is a function of the amount of debt in the firm's capital structure and its tax rate. In contrast, the dividends that a corporation pays on its common and
preferred shares are not tax deductible.

Consider the case of Green Llama Foodstuffs, Inc.:

At the beginning of the year, Blue Chipmunk Foodstuffs, Inc. had an unlevered value of $8,500,000. It pays federal and state taxes at the marginal rate of 40%, and currently has $2,500,000 in debt capital in its capital structure.

According to MM Proposition I with taxes, Green Llama Foodstuffs is allowed to recognize a tax shield of ___________, and the levered value of the firm is:

a. $7,100,000
b. $12,500,000
c. $9,900,000
d. $4,500,000

Answers

Answer:

c. $9,500,000

Explanation:

Un-levered value = $8,500,000

Tax= 40% = 0.4

Debt capital= $2,500,000

Tax shield = Debt capital * Tax

Tax shield = $2,500,000 * 0.4

Tax shield = $1,000,000

Levered value = Unlevered value + Tax shield

Levered value = $8,500,000 + $1,000,000

Levered value = $9,500,000

You purchased a share of stock for $120. One year later you received $1.82 as a dividend and sold the share for $136. What was your holding-period return

Answers

Answer:

Holding period return =14.85 %

Explanation:

The return on stock is the sum of the dividends earned and capital gains made during the holding period of the investment.

Dividend is the proportion of the profit made by a company which is paid to shareholders.  

Capital gains is another type of the return made on an equity investment as a result of increase in the value of the shares. It is difference between the cost of the share and the value at the time of disposal.

Therefore, we can can compute the return on the investment as follows:

Holding period return = (Dividend + capital gain)/Begin Price of stock × 100  

Dividend = $1.82

Capital gains= 136 - 120 = 16

Total dollar return on Investment = 1.82 + 16= $ 17.82

                                      = 17.82/120 × 100 = 14.85 %

Holding period return =14.85 %

The equation for CAPM is,

r = rRF + Beta * (rM - rRF)

Where,

rRF is the risk free raterM is the return on market

Adviser A

r = 0.05 + 1.5 * (0.13 - 0.05)

r = 0.17 or 17%

The required rate of return of Adviser A's portfolio was 17% while his portfolio yielded a return of 20% on average. The excess return on the portfolio was 20 - 17 = 3%

Adviser B

r = 0.05 + 1.2 * (0.13 - 0.05)

r = 0.146 or 14.6%

The required rate of return of Adviser B's portfolio was 14.6% while his portfolio yielded a return of 15% on average. The excess return on the portfolio was 15 - 14.6 = 0.04%

Based on the results, Adviser A's choice of stocks yielded a greater excess return. Thus, he was a better stock picker.

During the current year, Chudrick Corporation expects to produce 10,000 units and has budgeted the following: net income $300,000, variable costs $1,100,000, and fixed costs $100,000. It has invested assets of $1,500,000. The company’s budgeted ROI was 20%. What was its budgeted markup percentage using a full-cost approach?

Answers

Answer:

25%

Explanation:

For the computation of budgeted markup percentage using a full-cost approach first we need to find out the profit expected and total cost which is shown below:-

Profit Expected = $1,500,000 × 20%

= $300,000

Total cost = Variable cost + Fixed cost

= $1,100,000 + $100,000

= $12,00,000

Budgeted Markup Percentage = Profit ÷ Total Cost

= $300,000 ÷ $12,00,000

= 25%

Suppose the exchange rate is 90 yen per U.S. dollar and the United States wants to keep the exchange rate at a target rate of 90 yen per U.S. dollar. If the demand for U.S. dollars decrease, the Fed ______
A. buys dollars to raise the exchange rate
B. sells dollars to raise the exchange rate
C. sells dollars to lower the exchange rate
D. buys dollars to lower the exchange rate

Answers

Answer:

Option A, buys dollars to raise the exchange rate, is the right answer.

Explanation:

Option A is correct because when the Fed will buy the dollars then only the demand for dollars will shift rightwards. Consequently, the dollar price or exchange rate will go up. Therefore, the Fed will buy the dollars to increase the exchange rate. In another case, if the Fed wants to decrease the exchange rate then it will sell the dollars, and selling of dollars will shift the supply rightwards. Thus, the exchange rate will fall.

The value of the currency of a country as contrasted to the other country or the economic region is called an exchange rate.

The correct answer is:

Option A. buys dollars to raise the exchange rate.

This can be explained as:

When Fed will purchase a dollar then, there will be shifts towards the right.

The transfer rate or the dollar price will rise.

So to enhance the economic measure dollar should be purchased.

To reduce the exchange rate dollar should be sold.

Therefore, Fed should buy dollars.

21. A noncancelable lease contains an option to purchase a leased asset at a price that is sufficiently lower than the asset's expected fair value so that the exercise of the option appears reasonably certain. The fair value of the asset exceeds the lessor's cost of the asset. Therefore, the lease will be accounted for by the lessor as a(n):

Answers

Answer: A. Sales-type lease

Explanation:

A Sales type lease is one where the present value of all the lease payments of the Asset being leased is more than the cost/ carrying amount of the Asset.

The present value of the lease Payments is the Fair Value of the asset and as seen from the question, the fair value of the asset is more than the cost of the Asset. The lease will therefore be accounted for as a Sales type lease by the lessor.

It is worthy of note that this entry affects only the lessor.
